In the year 2005, a total of 750 fish were introduced into a man made lake. the fish population was expected to grow at a rate of 8.3% each year. what will the fish population be in 2050?

In 2050 fish population is 27000

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential change can be modeled by,

Where is the initial value of 750, is the rate of change. It is greater then 1 when there is growth and less then 1 when there is decay. and is the number of time periods.

The rate of change in percentage is 8.3%

That means, after 1 year fish will become 108.3 for 100 fish.

Then

Difference of years is,

Then,

So, the fish population in 2050 is 27000
